Thanks! Hopefully someone will take it away and do something cool with it :-)

Nice price, but I don't think it could be a Columbus Air frame. Too recent, I guess.

Cool frame, don't think it's air either. Don't think I've ever seen and Columbus air frames with fillet brazed lugs

Reckon you chaps are correct, have amended the title. Thanks for the positive comments!
Anyone able to make an educated guess on the type of tubing it might be, out of interest?

could be EGO tubing

Think thats a pretty good suggestion! found a picture of this Chas Roberts that looks rather similar...

columbus air is aluminum

'Airplane' is alu, 'air' is steel I thought?

my bad
i thought they were one and the same -

No worries, there's literally so many obscure tube sets! Had never heard of ego before yesterday

Price drop £50 - low enough to entice anyone to have a pop at building this up?

Just confirming some things about this frame for anyone who is interested.
It is definately columbus ego tubing.
I came across this on etsy and it looks identical other than the internal routing and a completely different frame builder.
Opinions and ideas?

You got a bargain!

Happy you like it :) Sorry for the red herring on the Seatpost size, shoulda measured it properly :s my bad
Looking forward to seeing it built up... I guess you've already looked on eBay for a 26.6?

So jealous you got this. Will it become a TT bike?
Fillet brazed TT frame. Looks to be Columbus Air to me, although no stickers to denote tubing. Steel frame. Teardrop shaped seat tube and down tube, quite narrow ovalised top tube. British BB. Pretty sure it takes a 27.0mm Seatpost... Calipers are in that region and 27.2 doesn't fit.
Sizing as follows:
Seat tube 64cm c2t
Seat tube 47cm c2c
Top tube 51cm
Headtube 10.5cm
For 700c wheels and 1inch fork steerer
Rear spacing 130mm
Columbus dropouts.
Pictures up shortly...
